Fluffeh writes with news that U.S. Congressmen Baca (D-CA) and Wolf (R-VA) have proposed a bill that would require most video games to have a warning label decrying their "potential damaging" long-term effects on children. "Under the one-page Violence in Video Games Labeling Act (PDF), packaging for all video games except those rated 'EC' for Early Childhood would be required to prominently display a message reading: 'WARNING: Exposure to violent video games has been linked to aggressive behavior.' The proposed label would be required even if the video game in question is not violent."
 
Well, if EC is any way for them to go by, here's my short story.

I attempted Kung Fu Panda i got bundled with an xbox...lead to extreme violent outbursts.

So, violent games dont lead to violence. Extremely Crap (EC) ones do...

Over the last 20-years, I have concluded that ignorance, bigotry, hyperbole, straw-man arguments, superstition and poor education cause aggressive behaviour.
